Georg Brandl 9205e9ebdc Closes #16155: fix a few errors in doctest output of the FAQ pages. 2014-10-06 17:51:09 +02:00
Georg Brandl a94ad1e508 Closes #10031: overhaul the "imports" section of the programming FAQ. 
Remove the advice to never use relative imports; it is a leftover from 2.x implicit relative imports.
Remove the advice to locally import modules in __init__, it is a strange practice.
Remove the advice to use "from ... import *" with some modules.

R David Murray 12dc0d96e0 #20135: FAQ entry for list mutation. (See also 6375bf34fff6.) 
I accidentally committed this in 6375bf34fff6; this changeset addresses the
last review comments on the patch.

This is a perennial question and something someone opens a ticket for probably
every other month or so, so I'm surprised we didn't already have a FAQ entry
for it.

The original patch was written by M. Votz, refined first by Ezio Melotti and
further refined by me.
